The June Photography Club meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 14, 6:00 p.m., at the Community United Methodist Church, 434 Lewis Street in Pagosa Springs. Our topic this month is Controlling Time: Creative Use of Shutter Speed in Photography. We will watch and discuss a video by National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore on how to use different shutter speeds to create a variety of moods in your photos. Do you want to freeze action with a very high shutter speed, or use a low shutter speed to depict movement? There are many creative choices possible. This will be a hybrid meeting, also available on Zoom. Club members will receive the Zoom link by email. If attending in person, arrive any time after 6 p.m. for socializing, the actual program, and Zoom, will begin at 6:30 p.m.

Club members may bring up to five images on a flash drive to share and discuss with the group following the presentation. As a reminder, submitted images should be JPEG (JPG) format. Resize to about 2000 pixels in the longest dimension.
